Dr Sajid - son w/ itchy eyes, maybe conjunctivitis

Dr. Sajid,

My 4 year old is complaining that his eye is "bothering" him. He is rubbing it constantly, slightly swollen, watery somewhat and using a tissue to wipe. I'm thinking that it could be the beginnings of conjunctivitis. My husband is sick and daughter just came off of viral infection. He is tall thin, brown skinned, full of energy, athletic, not displaying any signs of sickness beyond eye irritation, likes sweets, happy-go-lucky but will have temper tantrums when it moves him.

I want to catch this before it becomes full blown and reinfects my daughter. Please help. Thanks in advance.

Dr. Sajid,

My son has since spiked a fever of 101 since my earlier post. Obviously something more is going on - please help. He had no runny nose, no visible signs of cold, no coughing, nothing! This is VERY unusual for him when he is sick so I don't know what's going on besides the eye itching. Help

Fever with nor symptoms try Fr phos 30, 3-4 times a day. When the fever goes down lets deal with the eye.

Thanks Dr. Sajid and thank you New2town. I did get the ferrum phos and gave it to my son. I initially started with Aconite 6c because I did not have Fr phos. That started the digression of the fever. Then my husband brough home the Fr phos and the fever is now just vacilating between normal and very lowgrade like 99.

I am STILL at a loss as to what is wrong. His eye is watering, left eye only, he has sniffled maybe once, sneezed maybe once and that is all in 12 hours. That's it! No other outward symptoms. He is his normal active, bouncy, playfull, flippant self - so I am at a loss still. I read about euphrasia and thought that maybe this might be an appropriate remedy. I also wondered if I diluted euphrasia pellets in water, could I use it as an eye-wash. I have euphrasia 6c and 30c. Please advise. Thanks again in advance.

Fever is gone now - thanks. Should I now continue the
F phos? Overnight, eyes had transparent crusties, watery discharge is still occurring out of left eye only. Mood and everything is still normal. No other symptoms except watery, transparent discharge. Please advise. Thanks.

Try Euphrasia 30 c 3-4 times a day. Stop when it starts getting better.

Thanks - he is doing much better. Your help was appreciated.

Is Euphrasia 30c a medicine to be taken orally or it is a eye drop to be used in eyes. If eye allergies are severe should one take this medicine in eye (eye drops) and orally?

Please confirm.
Thanks
